Missile Escape Competition Winners Announced
The competition to win Missile Escape for XBLIG is now officially closed. While the number of entrants was a mite disappointing, the competition was entirely worthwhile just to read Shakerag’s tale (who unfortunately doesn’t own an Xbox) of renting Athena for the NES and “[getting] so mad that [he] remember[s] covering the entire desk (NES, TV, and all) with a bedsheet and refus[ing] to go near it until [he] had to return the game”. The entries can be read in full here and here.
Now, the winners in no particular order (as there were only five genuine entries!):
- Scott Hall’s Halo 2 house demolishing anger
- Doug’s big fist N64 friendships
- zard1′s utter disregard for punctuation at the hands of Gears of War
- wtf.tank’s Team Fortress 2 essay
- Hawkeyed One’s PSX Monster Rancher adventure
All of you will be contacted by e-mail this afternoon with a marketplace code that can be redeemed through your dashboard. Thanks for the stories guys!













Congrats to all the winners. I’ve updated Missile Escape, the new version RC2 has been approved just a few minutes ago, it should become available to gamers soon (in a few hours). The main update is the Easy mode, which is now much slower. I hope the gamers will like it. @Chris : I will send you an email with additional details
